Founded in 780 by , the city of Osnabrück has become a major metropolis in the south-west . The big city on the Hase river is not only a bishop's and university town but was also the site of a major event for Europe. Here and in the neighboring Westphalian city of Münster in 1648 a piece treaty was signed to end the 30 year war, one of the most bloody and disastrous Wars in European history. The name of the town of Osnabrück is inseparably connected with the company Karmann, which produced here attractive sports cars and convertibles until it’s takeover by the VW Group. Our event hotel, the modern Van Der Falk hotel in Melle, with its 120 rooms and large meeting rooms will give us plenty of space for the accommodation of the participants and for the evening events as well as the Annual General Meeting.
